There is a fine line between a horticulturalist vs a houseplant hobbyist vs a gardener vs a botanist.

[lilith6677]

A horticulturalist has very general knowledge on a little bit of everything, but nothing in particular is heavily specialized. A botanist can pronounce and name the scientific name and variety of any plant they pass by, but if you spend time in any botany communities, you’ll discover a fair amount of botanists who cannot keep a plant alive. Try to ask anybody but a botanist what alternation of generations is, about cheotropism, or the difference between plants, algae, and seaweed. They might have a vague recollection of hearing about it, but they certainly will not be able to go into detail.

A houseplant hobbyist might not be able to name the family, the region its native to, or even which plants in their own collection have flowers, but they are proficient in the use and applications of neem oil. They will make sure the dust on the leaves is wiped off, and about half of them will be able to neither overwater nor underwater their plants.

You can gift a gardener a houseplant, and they will do a pretty good job at keeping it alive for a while, but they would never go out and buy a houseplant for themself. To some gardeners, a plant is no use if not for food. The gardeners of the world, however, will be some of the last humans to be wiped out in the event of an apocalypse.

Often times, there are things said to me that had some type of intentional message if I read between the lines that makes me wonder what gender these people think I am.

[lilith6677]

No, of course my counselors didn’t think it was cute how I was suddenly really energetic and motivated and magically made a recovery. They thought it was scary how I was showing symptoms of bipolar disorder.

Can tumblr please ban trans sissy porn for the love of god??

The thing that would finally get me to brush my teeth more often is if I got in a relationship. Because I wouldn’t want to kiss them and they taste my unwashed mouth.

Chocolate Recall Now Classified As Potentially Deadly, According To The FDA

Here's everything you need to know.

Anyone with a milk allergy needs to be on high alert. In the midst of a flurry of ongoing food recalls, the FDA has updated its initial recall of a handful of Cal Yee Farms' chocolate products to the highest risk level. Originally, the FDA announced a recall of numerous Cal Yee Farm products because they may have contained undeclared milk, soy, wheat, sesame, FD&C #6, and/or almonds. The recall has now been elevated by the FDA to the most serious level of recall, Class 1, for only a few of the affected products: the company's dark chocolate almonds, dark chocolate apricots, and dark chocolate walnuts because the chocolates contained undeclared milk.

What the...

[bogleech]

We need to not stop talking about how Trump cut back food safety regulations during his first term and it had exactly the effect that logically would.

Every right leaning imbecile wants to pretend those rules were just arbitrarily hurting business owners, and that recalls were always this bad but are just reported more all the sudden.

No. It is really as simple as the fact that we had rules to reduce this sort of thing, a greedy idiot changed some of those rules, and now this sort of thing is astronomically worse.

We also need to talk about the fact that the threat of fines really was the only reason these brands bothered to practice even the most obvious quality checking or sanitation.

I'd say "they would just shit into your food if it would save them a dollar" but the unprecedented number of overlapping E. Coli outbreaks already indicate fecal contamination.

“Male brained, you were given male socialization” yeah right, I socialized myself female. All my friends were always girls. I never obliged when I was forced to like male things. I game myself female socialization.

Repressed trans men terfs with internalized transphobia who clearly hate being a woman but hate men more piss me OFFF

What women (female human beings) experience under the new administration's executive orders and subsequent introduced bills by republicans:

Potentially being charged with a felony and in some states the death penalty for taking the abortion pill or contraception pills.

Being politically forced to incubate and going through unwanted pregnancies, which will result in ~20+ years of being a caregiver to a child emotionally, financially, physically.

Rapists can now choose the mother of their offspring.

Women will be unable to medically treat sometimes life-threatening and extremely debilitating hormone cycle related conditions through contraception.

Women's healthcare is now required to also meet the needs of men (house resolution 7). In other words, honey, does your husband want you to have that hysterectomy?

What Tribes are experiencing:

A complete freeze to federal funding—the vast majority of tribal nations as sovereign yet dependent nations almost solely rely on this funding for very basic human programs (education, housing, food, elder care, youth care, protection).

What gay people are experiencing:

Rollback of gay rights and same sex marriage which allows us extremely important legal protections including allowing us into hospitals to care for our dying loved ones, property rights, etc.

What trans people experience under the new administrations executive order in comparison:

"I'll have to hide my pronouns in my social media bio :("

"I'm not able to alter my birth certificate"

Males can't be transferred to women's prisons.

Trump recognized there were two sexes.

Literal children and teenagers under 19 years old can't be pumped full of hormones or given surgeries to drastically alter/modify their sex. Adults over 19 still can.

Boys in high schools can't follow girls into locker rooms and bathrooms through just arguing they don't identify as boys.

Schools can't be federally funded (incentivized) by students believing they aren't really of their sex or by them just using different pronouns.

what trans people will really experience

I have to hide I'm trans otherwise I could lose my job which is the way I have to survive

I'll be not recognized as myself and that could out me as trans in my job and the thing above would happen

I'll be thrown in the rapist or dangerous criminals cells to alleviate their own rapist desire

My X birth certificate would be invalid, even if I changed legally

I'm a literal 18 year old adult but I can't take hormones, and they are using this to raise the age to include to all ages

I don't want to change in front of other boys, why don't these stalls are private, hell, I don't want to change in front of girls either, but at least in front of boys I wouldn't be as much bullied than the girls

This is literally section 28 in US

I will add that if the way you present doesn’t match your sex marker, you could (keyword could, does not mean you will) be denied travel because you could be “lying about your identity.” This applies to butch lesbians and fem presenting gay men. If you have an x sex marker your passport is now invalid and you can’t leave the country

[lilith6677]

Why do I look pissed off in every photo in existence of me????

[lilith6677]

I cannot wait to kill my sex drive when I get on estrogen omgg

[lilith6677]

Consider my negative vibes fucking demolished. I just chased my dog outside, in a field, barefoot. I feel so connected to nature. I have the urge to gather berries and weave a hammock out of natural fibers. Rahhhg

“I’m mentally normal” ho when you got your second Covid test you got it up your nose because the first one was like that. If you’re lucky enough to have never got a covid test the one they do up your nose is painful and uncomfortable. The very sweet nurse was like “are you sure” and she asked that multiple times and I kept insisting because I already got it that way
